It's been a really strange day. I came to work slightly nervous, but it turned out to be a good day to be me: being back and in the swing since there was just me and another colleague there in the morning got me off on a good start. Then I found out that two people, another colleague who popped in a bit later, and one employee, was spending their very last day there today. It felt a little sad, and I was just starting to dig myself a sad little hole when another colleague popped up after a sick-leave spanning way over one month. Suddenly life had me shitting rainbows again, and to make things better at lunch, the boss gave us all some late Christmas gifts in the form of gift certificates for a moderate but not insignificant sum, as well as a free cinema tickets each - mine's to be spent on the 26th, on Avatar. I ran toddled along with the guy who's quitting to the local record/game store in the mall, and lo if I do not spy a game I've been longing for since one beat the snot out of Xemnas for the first time. Suffice to say, I got it. Elated suddenly, I rode a unicorn back to the internet arena where I work, only to be shook off by the voracious, hormonal beast at finding out two more of the employees are quitting in February. So basically, everyone I'm starting to consider lovely acquaintances are leaving. For all that I've been okay with people coming and going - it's that kind of place, after all, a junction for the unemployed - today has been a bit of a blow beneath the belt. And to be completely honest with you, I was perhaps hoping just the teensiest bit to be offered one of the employee posts, but the boss announced this morning that nobody would be filling her void. As for the other two leaving February she mentioned nothing, but I'm not getting my hopes up, since their tasks are a bit beyond my level of skill. So it's had its ups and downs, and I feel a little empty - and also impatient, now that I have a game but no console: lord knows how long a parcel that size will take from Arizona. Watching the cat leaping and attacking her own image in the mirror cheers you up for only so long, but on the plus side, now that the employees are leaving I'm allowed to take their personal numbers and hang out with them after work. Anyway, what I really wanted to relay - about a year after everyone else, and only days after the next game in the series is released - was really this:
